Selling 1 Losing Pick After 1 Year, Holding 1, Selling a Winner

Biovail (BVF), CCA Industries (CAW), and EPIQ Systems (EPIQ) have all lost money since being picked last December. I personally believe Biovail is still a good investment and hold it in my real-money portfolio, but it has been a loser. On the Magic Formula site, it's still listed as one of the top 25 picks, so it can be held for another year. It looks like Icarra is still down (it's been down for 3 days now, at least), so I can't update my portfolio there, but consider CAW and EPIQ sold.

Update 12/19
Well, it looks like EPIQ had a 3:2 split 6/8/07, so it's actually returned over 40% in the past year. So I'm ending up selling 1 winner after a year and 1 loser.
